Abstract.In this work a modified Reynolds equation issued from a consistent derivation of the equations of motion for elastohydrodynamic lubrication is studied. The existence and the uniqueness of this equation are, under some hypotheses on the data, obtained by means of both fixed point argument and monotonicity techniques.
